The latest certificate (September 2020) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in April 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74).

It hasn't traded since May 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 48 m² it sits well below the postcode median (96 m² across 13 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£279/sq ft) was about 130.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
